As kids we never had much interest in Dads wartime career, a subject Dad spoke little about. Spotting a story on the web about a soldier stationed in Iceland in the early years of WW2, I looked at the story and it led me here, maybe it is time to find out more about his army life? My father joined the TA in 1939 aged 17, the regiment ? i need to research this, I know he was stationed in Iceland in the early war years as he met and married my mother their she was an Icelandic girl, marrying a non Icelandic man was much frowned on by the locals. my mother spoke no English my father spoke no Icelandic so how this romance began ? I know my father was a singer and would sing in dance halls in Iceland, in one such place he met my mother. I need to research these early points further.
